The iterative method for calculating the times from mean to true syzygy (i.e., conjunction and opposition of the Moon and Sun), proposed by John of Saxony in 1330, is the only medieval method where exact Alfonsine times are yielded and which is robust to the required time correction.

The passage is not determining the place where the method took place, so Where In A and B is nullified.
C have parallelism issue
D while also being robust to the required time correction. (Breaking the continuity in between the clauses)
E is best choice, Correct choice of words. No parallelism issue, and continuity is there.

Answer : E
A : usage of where modifying medieval method is wrong... it could be in which or that , while the later has been used in options
B : same as A.
C : that yields exact Alfonsine times *and* it is : what comes after and is a pronoun (it ), we do not have pronoun that it could be parallel to.
D : usage of while showing a contrast isnt what the sentence means! , also GMAT does not prefer using being
E : That * yields * .. that * is * : right parallelism with both being verbs , hence right answer
